Did you have a coach in high school who inspired you and encouraged you to do your best? Someone who held you accountable, pushed you out of your comfort zone, and gave you the tools you needed to succeed?

When we talk about high school sports, having a coach is normal. But what about a coach to help you manage diabetes?

My guest on this episode of the podcast is Lauren Bongiorno. Lauren is a T1D Health coach and the founder of Lauren Bongiorno Coaching. I talk to Lauren about what T1D coaching is (and what it's not) and how she coaches people with T1D to change their mindset, reduce barriers, and feel more confident in their diabetes management.
